Post Sent my car back to dealer

I had to sent my car back to the dealer today to get some things fixed around the doors. They gave me a Integra loaner. Damn that car is slow and underpowered compared to the TL-S. I miss my car!!!!!!!!

hmmmm, are you driving the non vtec automatic? I can tell you that the GS-R with manual is faster than the normal TL.

Sucks when you have to go back to the dealer and they give you a loaner car. I have a 99TL and when the D4 Light burnt out, they gave me a DODGE NEON loaner, which sucks even more!

I don't think LEXUS does that for their customers!

Lexus dealers in my area loan out ES300 and RX300.

this is quite UN-ACURA like, if the dealer loans you a car, it should be an ACURA also because most of my friends who owns INFINITY or LEXUS gets the company loaner car also....you should have made a scene at the dealership, a co-worker who bought a VW Beetle was loaned an AUDI. the dealership should step up on loaner car NOT step down....if i were you I would have gone ballistic at the dealership. he he he!

Sup silver,

Atleast you got a loaner Man I'm to young to get a loaner. They said I have to be 25 so they gave me a ride home Anyways Y did you take you car to the dealer? And how are those super plasma fogs looking at night? Does it match with the hid really good?

Mr.T

Same ride as you except for the body kit

Hey Mr.T
I am 18 and they gave me the loaner. The black things around the outside of the window was flawed so they had to take it to the body shop to get it fixed. They say it should take a few days. I think the Plasma bulbs matches pretty well. It tooks a lot like the BMW HIDs. So I guess it is a little purple compared to Acura's HID. But overall it is a good match.

SatinSilver,

Where did you get those PIAA replacement bulbs? There's no problem as far as wattage is concerned is there?

You can get it at auto accessories stores. I donlt think there are any wattage problems.
